This Year’s LEGO Christmas Build Up (40253) Revealed!

LEGO seems to be in an early festive spirit with its latest addition of collectible holiday gifts this Christmas season. Other than the fan-favorite Advent Calendars, LEGO as it turns out, will be giving away another Christmas-themed promotional to celebrate the holidays. If you recall from last year, LEGO gave a free 250-piece Holiday Countdown Calendar (40222) for a minimum purchase of $99 at all LEGO Stores and at shop.LEGO.com from October 1-25, 2016. This time, Italy’s LEGO Store Calendar gives us a peek at what looks like this year’s free LEGO Christmas Build Up (40253) set.

This new set looks very much the same as that from the Holiday Countdown Calendar (40222) in which you can come up with 24 Christmas-themed builds that you have to construct one at a time. We don’t have any official word or images yet, except for the fact that the Christmas Build-Up set will be offered as a free promotional for every qualifying purchase of €65 and above in Italy starting October 22 to November 22. Given the cycle of LEGO Christmas promotionals that North America has, it is fair to assume that we will also have this as a LEGO Store and shop.LEGO.com promotional as early as next month
